The Cycle of Process

1. The solution to alleviate human error or overcome personal limitations is the addition of process to avoid / minimise it.
2. The longer the timespan, the greater the accumulation of processes.
3. The more processes that are in place, the less intrusive adding new process seems.
4. Working within such an environment entrenches it as the status quo.
5. Eventually the processes become so taxing that any changes in personnel or circumstances pose a problem in itself.
6. Outside perspectives offer an entirely new way of doing things that will eliminate all the wasted effort gone to maintaining the process rather than the outcomes the process was there to manage.
7. The new way of doing things turns out not to eliminate all human error or overcome personal limitations.
